Looking at it Another Way

lettuce variety 
The weather out side has been beautiful this week. I just wish I had the time to go play in it. I have wanted to get out to my vegetable garden for weeks now. I have my lettuce bed growing wonderfully, but I need to get the other things  in the ground for them to grow. Don't you agree. haha.
But with all this, I have been non stop answering questions for my etsy shop.
ways to share stash
I am amazed at the traffic, but the questions, have stunned me. Like really? I really wish you could hear me saying this, cause I am not complaining, really. :)
I have had questions about what I charge. Did you not see the price next to the item?
Would I be willing to send a free sample to someone, so they can post it to their blog for people to see,? Can I send picture of the fabrics I have for choices to choose from? Uh, Sure do you have all day, I don't.
what # do you like


If you want to share my items, copy and paste a photo with the web site. Look at the prices on the item page. What colors and themes do you desire, then we can narrow down the search of fabric choices.
No, I am not amazed at the questions being asked. I am glad I am not asking them and have had the opportunity to see the real world in its reality. (?) Really.
Is it Pink?
It is Cute!
And available on etsy
This is one that got me. The item is sold as pink. Take a good look at it. Is it Salmon/ Red, /PINK? I still cannot say for sure.
But the out come is not bad, just not what the customer really wanted.  So, back to the drawing board and wait for the right item to arrive, again.
At this point, I am happy to say, business has picked up and I am working at making people happy. Glad I can be of service, as well as an instructor.
Now off to go build another gift item for my bible study group. I am making gifts for all the gals as a end of the season surprise. I will come back later and show you what I gave them. Until next time, have a great adventure and thank you for stopping by for a quick visit.

What kind of stunning questions have you been asked this week?

Thank you for your comments, they mean a lot to me.  :)

Raining In SoCal

Hello Bloggers,
It is really raining here in SoCal. It Is a really treat and very much needed.
As always, life here this week has been busy and all I have done is teach, babysit and sew a few wallets, but today with the help of the weather I had a small break.
With the weather and reading history , it has a way of curing insomnia.
Angie's beautiful work of art, that I lOVE.









Also, today there is an anniversary to be had. Angie over at http://quiltingreadersgarden.blogspot.com/ is celebrating her fifth year in blog land, You Go Angie. And she is having a give away. Check it out, and let her know I sent you, lol.


I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and enjoy your weather. It could change at any moment here, or maybe in the next ten minutes. :)

Days Like This, My Mama Said

Remember when we heard that sayin' There will be days like this, my mama said"?
Last week was full of them. And today is another one. Oh my goodness. I know that spring is around the corner and days are warming up. Birds are twitter-patted and the pooches are wanting to sun bathe. My mind is wanting to hibernate and my soul wants to sing and sleep all at the same time. It is crazy. And I can not explain any of to my heart. It just doesn't get any of it. So I guess I really don't either.
I hope I am not alone in any of these issues, and if I am, I must be really special. lol





Trying to get things together for the tax man, teach school, baby sit, work, and sew wallets for my shop, is all just about over the edge. Not to mention, I still have to fix dinner and sleep. Okay enough. 
Thanks for letting me vent. 

What do you think of my new Etsy items.
 Do they holler Spring Fling for the young thing? 



What colors would you like to see in my shop?




And how does your day seem to be going?





Hope you are well, and thank you for visiting, I needed a break.
